INSTALL.txt says:
 You *must* specify a DNS server in z2.py or via command-line options.

(but it doesn't say why) I thought perhaps -p was the same way...

Actually, I'm running ZServer as root, assuming it will become nobody.

No other programs have trouble writing to /tmp. Maybe I have a stale
socket file in /tmp. Will clean it out. More tonight...
